You can create you oun default layout book!

[Anonymous]

If you created layout book for you business, you can install it as default new book in Plotmaker. Simply replace "PMTEMPLATE.BIN" in ArchiCAD directory to you book.

1. Open ArchiCAD directory and rename "PMTEMPLATE.BIN" to "PMTEMPLATE_old.BIN"
2. Rename you layout book to "PMTEMPLATE.BIN" (yes, you must change extention from "LAY" to "BIN").
3. Place renamed file to ArchiCAD directory.

There is "PNTemplate.bin" also in ArchiCAD directory. I can't understand what it used for. Can GS persons explain that?

With bast regards,

Seems we may be connecting some dots here Leo.

This is one of my posts taken from an older thread:

"...You can also turn on the Save Template function by editing your registry.

Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Graphisoft>ArchiCAD>ArchiCAD 8.x>Navigator> and double-click on Save Template and change it to a 1.

This gives you an extra fly-out in your View Editor called 'Save Template File' next time you start ArchiCAD. This will create a file called PNTemplate.bin...."

You can do the same thing in ArchiCAD, as you just demonstrated in PlotMaker!

Good find mate!
